What is your go-to Linux distro and why?
(lemmy.world)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I agree, but ever since systemD, well...
Devuan then!
Devuan is awesome, but I've moved to Void! Devuan is a ripper though!
I decided to switch to Devuan a long time ago, because it's an opinionated Debian that align better with my preferences. The Devuan community prefer the simple solutions like ALSA, sysvinit (and others), udev independent of systemd, would rather avoid dbus and so on.. the thing is I've never made the switch. I'm now running old old stable Debian with sysvinit, ALSA etc.. but soon™ when I decide to clean up the mess that is my computer, I'll rebase to Devuan which does what I want out of the box :P
I wouldn't call it rock solid... It was running old versions of kde with lots of bugs. Bugs that had been fixed months ago.
So I don't know. It's good we have choice but I don't personally see Debian as more stable than arch. I see it as having older bugs than arch.
KDE could fix 80% of it's bugs overnight and it will still be the most bug-ridden DE by a longshot
Yep, most features and most bugs. I go back and forth between kde and Gnome when a bug annoys me too much.
